Steps required to setup world
-
The world server has to be hosted on a computer that is connected to the internet as many hours as is needed. For personal use it maybe ok just to run it on your own computer while you are using the world, but for general access it should be 24/7. The requirements are not demanding and are based on the number of users. The internet upstream rate is really the governing factor as to how many people can simultaneously use the world. For large worlds with many users it's generally recommended that it be hosted on a hosting service. For home use, any current computer
- The other requirement is for storing the files that includes all the model files, textures, sounds and sequences on a server. Since the data rate is much higher, it is recommended to be commercially hosted. A standard web page hosting may suffice, depending on the user agreement. Some hosting services will not let you store files for retrieval other than a normal web browser. For individually use and testing purposes your own computer can suffice, but the setup is much more complicated than installing the world server.
